If hypnosis can help lifetime smokers quit in one session, in shedding pounds that have held onto for years, even open the possibility for lifelong singles to attract love, might hypnosis help you bring in the income you've been dreaming of—even in tight times?



Could be.

Here are six ways:

1. Hypnosis can help you finish your education. If the notion that education would make you snobbish, or you didn't have the brains for it, held you back, hypnosis can help you let go of that attitude.

If difficulties studying, memorizing, or test-taking have been the stumbling block, hypnosis may be able to teach your mind techniques that good memorizers and retainers naturally share—and alleviate undue nervousness.

Not having a degree it doesn't have to be a barrier anymore.

2. Are you nervous at job interviews? Could improved performance in presenting yourself or networking improve chances for a better job, consider this: hypnosis can help dispel nervousness, enhance focus, and assist you in answering questions succinctly and with confidence. You'll interview better and may land a superior-paying position.

3. If test-taking is involved in landing a promotion, hypnosis can ease nervousness, help retention, and allow you recall what you studied more easily, potentially elevating your score.

4. Hypnosis can help you improve in very-specific skill sets important to performing your job, and may enhance your chances of promotion and job retention.

If your career could be helped by changing beliefs or attitudes important to your work, hypnosis may assist substantially. A salesperson reluctant to cold-call or a hospital worker squeamish around blood would probably be great candidates for a hypnotic help.

If your career demands other skills that you are weak in, consider hypnosis as an ally in improving such things as memorization, comprehension of written materials, getting along with others, leadership ability, and most kinds of test-taking.

Presenting, public-speaking, negotiating and communicating among peers or managers can also be enhanced with hypnosis.

That small investment of time and money could pay off well in career success and salary.

5. Hypnosis, along with psychotherapy, can help you manage anger and disappointment.

6. If you grew up poor and learned to view wealth as evil, you may have held yourself back from fields that are higher paying. Are you now open to letting go of an attitude that sees wealth-as-evil? If so, hypnosis can help

If you think about it, there are many ways you can easily and pleasantly improve your life with hypnosis, careerwise and otherwise: Developing new friendships, attracting a life partner, improving in a sport and opening yourself to all sorts of new life experiences come to mind immediately.

Frequently I find that once a client has had a successful hypnosis session in my office, the list of “What else I want to use this for” becomes an immediate topic of conversation. The same might be true of reading an article. ©2009 by Wendy Lapidus-Saltz. All rights reserved.
